About this game

Guilty Gear X2 #Reload is the first update to Guilty Gear XX and the seventh installment in the Guilty Gear series. Developed by Arc System Works and published by Majesco, it refines the fighting system through extensive character balance changes while preserving the core gameplay.

Robo-Ky receives a completely distinct moveset and a new EX Mode, replacing his earlier palette-swap design. The console version also includes a fully voiced story mode told from each character’s perspective, along with Kliff and Justice as secret characters. EX characters were rebalanced, and Shadow character variants were added.

Additional changes include a redesigned burst gauge, updated Roman Cancel and Force Roman Cancel effects, and revised battle HUD text. Early versions were known as “Red Reload” before bug fixes led to the “Blue Reload” release. The game was released for arcade, Microsoft Xbox, Windows PC, PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable, and Xbox 360.
